Before connecting UPort USB-to-serial converters to your computer’s
USB port, we recommend installing the UPort driver first. To do this,
follow the installation procedure described in the “Installing the UPort
1200/1400/1600 Driver” section below. The installation procedure was
done on a PC running a Windows platform. UPort converters can be
connected to any upstream type A USB port that is on the PC host or on
an upstream hub. UPort converters are hot pluggable, and therefore
there is no need to power down your computer prior to installation.
After installing the driver, connect the UPort to an upstream host or
hub. The Found New Hardware wizard will locate the appropriate
drivers automatically. Once the drivers are found, various windows will
pop up as the UPort’s serial port is being installed. When the Found
New Hardware Wizard finishes installing the UPort, use the operating
system’s Device Manager to check and/or modify the port settings.
The new COM port will be listed under Ports (COM & LPT).
